Day -1: Food Poisoning Hits Home

Yep, that's right folks. I'm pretty sure I've been suffering from food poisoning the past two days. What a way to spend your last few days at home! On the bright side, we're completely prepared for this situation. We have 2 types of prescription antibiotics, immodium, and lemon-lime gatorade powder to combat stomach bugs. However, I haven't used any of it thinking that I should save it for the more potent stuff that we will be facing in the next 8 months.

Gatorade Grape tastes like Bubblicious gum.

aww. feel better!! you know tho, i only had food poisoning ONCE my whole year in china, and it was never as bad as when i had food poisoning in the states... so maybe it'll be uphill from here :)
aww, sorry to hear that. make sure you bring a BIG stash of cipro on this trip. It's a godsend for digestive problems, and you never know the accessibility/quality of medicine overseas. It has saved me many a times in China already.
I have Cipro. James has Azithromycin. We're armed to the teeth. This current bout with food poisoning is just unfortunate.
